Are you guys in Newfoundland actually running boats???
I guess it's not as cold as in Ontario? I hate you!
Update :
They are sending me another transmitter :) He said I could toss the defective one Soooo,,,me being me ,I had to take it apart LOL. The small board that had the light and the binding electronics was not plugged into the main board . Plugged it in, installed new batteries and PRESTO,, I got a flashing light lookin for a boat !!
It's a beautiful day for a maiden voyage

It was 9* cel and sunny here today :) Too windy to really enjoy the boat but I just had to take her out for a quick blast anyway. MissG got airborn several times fighting whitecaps LOL . Should have taken the camera
Do you guys charge your Lipo's when you get home and then top them off before the next outing or do you leave them low ?Comment

I used to charge them fully after each run, but that means that you're storing them full charged all night and even more if for whatever reason you don't go out the next day, ideally you want to keep them at 3.8v (~40% charge) per cell during storage.
So now I charge them to storage voltage and top them out just before going out. Less convenient but hopefully better for the batteries. Which charger are you using? Most digital chargers have a storage charge option.
It's -8C here. I don't even try going out.
